Chapter 10: The Shun Family's Business (3)
When Zeng Shou and Luo Fan arrived at the county office, the guys of the Na Cen family were already kneeling on the ground and drawing a charge.
Lu County ordered: "My lord, the criminal Cao Dayong is a partner of Tianyuan Pawnshop, and now he has admitted that he secretly collaborated with the corpse chaser to steal the corpse. ”
"It's hard for you, Lu County Order, I'm still busy trying the case this night." Zengshou Pi didn't smile, staring at the man kneeling under the hall. The man looked like he was in his twenties, with a sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, a face that looked like a villain at first glance, and his face was calm in the face of the county order and the two classes of soap, as if he was ready to surrender. He knew in his heart that it was just an afternoon, everything was a foregone conclusion, this game was naturally done by the Cen family, and he would be drunk for an afternoon, and the wooden man Luo Fan was also fooled by them in the county office.
What kind of bankrupt family has to invite ten taels of silver and three tables of banquet, that wine has already been drugged!
He hated to give himself a slap in the face: After going out of Beijing for half a month, everything is too smooth for you, do you really think you are extremely smart?
Luo Fan was still asking, "How can this be." Didn't you say in the afternoon that Tianyuan should put money in the seal, and how many people have been ruined? ”
Lu Xian Ling smiled bitterly: "My lord, it was the official who was negligent, and the official had already found a few people in the city who had borrowed money from Tianyuandang, and these people all said that Tianyuandang's interest rate was not high, and he helped the poor, and there was no such thing as bullying men and women, as for the rumor that even if the borrower died, the corpse still belonged to Tianyuandang, which is really slanderous and slanderous, my lord, please see, this is the testimony of these people, and there are handprints behind it." ”
White paper, black letters, red fingerprints!
Luo Fan picked it up and flipped through the pages, and threw it on the case angrily: "Lu Guofu, you did a good job!" Good! ”
Lu County's order gave a deep salute: "My lord's praise, the subordinate officials are just impartial!" ”
What an impartiality! In the afternoon, Gabba old hen turned into a duck!
From beginning to end, Cen 13 stood quietly to the side, as if it was none of his business.
Zengshou sneered: "Lu County Ling is really a good official, I will truthfully report to the emperor and the queen mother of the two palaces." ”
Lu Guofu even said that it was the duty of the lower officials, and he could not let go of a bad person, nor could he wronged a good person.
"Adults also know that the Cen family has a great cause, and Cen Dashuai and Jiu Shuai have made great contributions, and it is inevitable to be slandered by rumors, but fortunately, it is clear from heaven."
Lu County's order is particularly high-sounding.
Zengshou squatted down, staring at the prisoner Cao Dayong without blinking: "You tell the truth, I am Qincha, I can make decisions for you, tell everything you know, don't be afraid of being threatened, everything has a master,." Cao Dayong was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Luo Fan was overjoyed, and said in his heart, could it be that this person was really persecuted by Cen Thirteen? But I saw that Cao Dayong kept kowtowing, and said in his mouth: "The little one knows that he is wrong, and the little one believes the words of the cowhide, thinking that those people are dead anyway, and there is no one in the family who is guarding it." No one knows that their bodies are dug up, and the little one knows that this is intolerable, and he begs the adults to spare the little one's life, and the little one still has an eighty-year-old mother in the family...... "Zengshou asked coldly: "There is also a three-year-old child?" ”
"No, the little one is not married, and he serves his mother alone, my lord." The man banged his head.
Zengshou was angry, and grabbed him by the collar: "Do you know, steal the grave and dig the grave, and kill him." ”
"Huh? And beheading? Help, adults, the little ones don't want to die, the little ones just want those people to be dead anyway, and it's useless for the corpses to rot in the ground, so it's better to sell a few dollars to help the little old mother, and they can be counted as accumulating virtue and doing good deeds, and having a good baby. ”
"How do you know the birthdates of those people?" Luo Fan felt that he had found a problem.
"Several of them borrowed money from our pawnshop, and they handled it in small hands, and they recorded their birthdays by hand."
"That's a coincidence. The people who borrowed money from your pawnshops are dead! ”
Luo Fan was suddenly blocked back by someone's words, and he was very unhappy.
Cen 13 next to him sighed: "That's what I said, this lending thing is still hurtful, and we Tianyuan will never do it again in the future." I also ask the two adults to help the student hide this matter, if my parents and brothers know, they must serve the family law, the student ...... I'm ashamed. ”
Between these words, Cen Guopu was picked cleanly.
Zengshou really wants to give him a thumbs up: Cow! Your old boy calculated the sixth master in one afternoon, you cow!
Luo Fan's face darkened, and he flicked his sleeves and turned his head away.
Zengshou gave Master Bai a look, and the latter hurriedly chased out.
"General Luo, General." Luo Fan is tall with long legs and big steps, and the down-and-out literati Master Bai is thin and small, and he is out of breath at a trot all the way.
"General, you wait for me, you want to ...... Ran out of breath. ”
"It's really unreasonable, you also went out to investigate with the soaps in the afternoon, why did everything change in a while?"
It was also the first time that Luo Fan had suffered such a failure.
In the capital, he doesn't have to bother, he will arrest whoever the Admiral says he will arrest, and he doesn't have to bother with people to fight wits and courage. Now, he feels that his brain has not been enough since he left Beijing, and his cousin, who has always been dignified and virtuous, has become a bad person, and he wants to do something but others are playing around, but there are many witnesses with white paper, black and red handprints!
"My lord, I have also been a county magistrate for a few years, and I have seen a lot of things that cover the sky with this hand, and I am also to blame, I was careless for a while." Master Bai sighed.
"Your sixth master......"
Luo Fan wanted to speak and stopped.
Seeing that his face was embarrassed, Master Bai thought of what he had done to increase his longevity today, and suddenly thought that something was wrong: "General, my sixth master drinks very well on weekdays, but this time he has been drunk with Shunzi for so long, and he is still ...... Still...... It must have been Lu Guofu who drugged the wine. ”
Luo Fan's eyes lit up: Yes, why didn't I think of it! Since he left Beijing, Zeng Xiaoliu has been very reliable when he looks awkward, why did he make such a big mess today, and he was drugged! Thinking of this, he felt a little more jealous of the Cen family in his heart.
This was the first round they had fought against the Cen family after they left Beijing, and he was unwilling to fail like this.
Luo Fan and Master Bai walked around outside again, and when they returned to the post station, they found that Zeng Shou and Shunzi were already sitting there.
"I'm going to see those witnesses myself tomorrow."
Longevity to inform Luo Fan.
The latter looked at Master Bai and then at Shunzi, stepped forward and pulled the sleeve of Zengshou and said, "You come, I have something to say to you." ”
For the first time, Zengshou did not laugh at him for moving his hands and feet, which shows that both of them underestimated this sudden change, and they were depressed in their hearts, and the apricots who were happy to increase their longevity also converged.
"You can't see ...... That kind of thing? Then ask if it's a ghost, how did they die, they're all dead, there's nothing to be afraid of, they must be able to tell the truth. “
When he came to the court, seeing that there was no one left and right, Luo Fan said in a low voice.
Zeng Shou smiled bitterly: "The problem is, I didn't find out where the ghosts of those four people were, I couldn't find their ghosts, last night the front of the stall was clean, except for Qi Niangzi's ......" Zeng Shou stopped when he said this, and slapped his head suddenly, "Oh my God, I'm stupid." ”
Luo Fan was stunned: "What?" ”
"Last night, how did the ghost of the Qi lady appear? It was the hat that appeared with the talisman pasted on the door of the head, and the corpse chaser wouldn't let us touch other people's hats! ”
Yes, Luo Fan also wants to come.
"That means that as long as you take off the hats and yellow talismans on the heads of those four corpses, a ghost will appear!"
